I get a call with a 'question' and wasn't sure...
 

If it was a word trick etc...

Kid isn't sure of one of his answers on 4 man mechanics test.

First question:

1. The referee shall instruct the ball person to hold ball not in use moving up and down the sideline.

I told the 'kid' (I can tell I'm getting old) I'd say false.

Pregame Resp. IX B10...

Inform appropriate official to instruct ball person to hold ball not in use moving up and down sidelines.

The kid swore the answer was true, but I told him that IMHO, the referee doesn't tell them, the HL/L would (depending in sideline)

Right?

As the Umpire, I was the one to instruct the ball boy/girl on what to do.

I can't tell you what your mechanics are, we have the BJ talk to the ballboy and in four man it would be the H/L.
